*Why was Percoco, after leaving the state payroll in 2014 to run the governor’s reelection campaign, allowed to continue to use his government office right next to Cuomo’s in Manhattan? Percoco would have been violating state law if he was using state resources to conduct campaign business, and testimony and media reports showed that Percoco made 837 calls over 68 days from a government phone.

*Did the governor ever work with Percoco on anything campaign related while his former aide was in his old office?

*How does he respond to those who say the trial highlighted a pay-to-play culture within his administration?

*Why didn’t the governor or anyone on staff ask Percoco when he was returning to the state payroll after the 2014 campaign who his private clients were when he was off the payroll? Cuomo has previously said Percoco told him he’d be taking on some clients but never said who they were.

There are other questions as well.

“(Cuomo) said he would answer questions when the trial was over. It’s over. Speak up Andrew,” tweeted state Sen. John DeFrancisco, who is seeking the GOP nomination for governor. “New Yorkers deserve an answer as to why their state government has been up for sale under your administration.”

Cynthia Nixon is rumored to be considering a primary run against Gov. Cuomo.

"The information that came out throughout the trial revealed a widespread, corrosive culture of corruption driven by the governor himself," state GOP Chairman Ed Cox said.

Alexandra Smith, executive director of the anti-Cuomo America Rising PAC, added that “the political ramifications will continue to be a glaring red flag for voters as he ramps up efforts for a run in 2020.”
